Excerpt from Color in Everyday Life: A Manual for Lay Students, Artisans and Artists; On the Principles of Color Combination and Color Arrangement, and Their Applications in Dress, Home, Business, the Theatre and Community Play This book is addressed to that ever growing number of people who are interested in color and in the principles of its agreeable and effective use. In an increasing number of homes there is an awakened feeling for harmony in interior decoration. In the field of dress women are seeking more than ever before to achieve personality and independence, and to combine with vogue the note of self-expression. In the field of business there is a more ample recognition of the part played by color. The appeal of colored beads to the Indians in the early days of bartering is represented today in the part played by color in the uses of the poster, the label, the circular and the window display. In the theater the new ideas in stage-setting, in industry the search for dyes, and in military tactics the important role played by camouflage, all have tended to stimulate the recognition of the part played by color in everyday life. The study of color moreover is a source of great pleasure, opening up a whole world of sensations. In the author's personal experience he has found that the habit of color observation has given to his pupils a remarkable expansion of interest.
